[PATCH 4/4] perf strlist: Move an error code assignment in strlist__parse_list_entry()

A local variable was set to an error code before a concrete error situation
was detected. Thus move the corresponding assignment into an if branch
to indicate a software failure there.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
